Intel Arrow Lake in full negligee. Debut in stores soon
Some PC enthusiasts are definitely risk-averse. Although Intel Core Ultra 200S has not yet hit stores, photos of the so-called “delid”.
The processors will be available in stores next week Intel Arrow Lake for desktop computers, and the first independent tests will appear on the Internet. There is something to wait for, because we are talking about new architectures such as Intel Lion Cove and Skymont and lithography from TSMC. Additionally, the Blues promise lower power consumption and temperatures.
The Intel Core Ultra 200S series will debut on October 24
Of course the first copies have already been sent to reviewers. And it so happens that one of them decided on the so-called “delid” i.e. a photo of IHS (metal heat sink). Thanks to this, we know what the CPU looks like inside.
User X (formerly Twitter) with a nickname “Madness727” showed photos of a “disassembled” new generation processor. It is not known what specific model it is, but the options are quite limited – only the systems were sent to reviewers Intel Core Ultra 5 245K and Ultra 9 285Kwhich use the same silicon.
We see here modular construction. The main computing tile was made in TSMC N3B lithography (3nm), iGPU sections in the N5P process (5nm), and the SoC and I/O systems were manufactured in N6 (6nm). Everything connected using technology Foveros 3D based on a base produced in Intel’s plants.
The operation to remove the IHS is difficult by capacitors located on the edges of the PCB. You can see that Madness727 knocked one of them off and it had to be re-soldered. Finally, it is worth recalling that The Intel Core Ultra 200S series is to use the LGA 1851 socket, which requires the purchase of a new motherboard.
